Second Annual Bucks County Restaurant Week Features Dozens Of Eateries

The celebration of Bucks County’s established and growing culinary scene will allow locals and visitors to taste dishes at discounted prices. Organizers said the more than 65 restaurants, pubs, and bistros taking part are spread across 20 different towns, including many in Lower Bucks County.

Diners who take part can visit their choice eateries between Sunday, April 28 and Saturday, May 4. Restaurants taking part will offer three-course, prix fixe dinner menus featuring signature dishes, and delectable desserts for guests to enjoy at a special rate of $25 or $35 per person.

Organizers said that reservations are “strongly encouraged.” Visit Bucks County has set up an official Visit Bucks County Restaurant Week OpenTable page to help.

This year’s celebration of Bucks County-cooked food has a charity component. Certain eateries will be donating a portion of their proceeds from Visit Bucks County Restaurant Week to the United Way of Bucks County’s Bucks Knocks Out Hunger (BKO Hunger) drive, which is aimed at eliminating food insecurity and increasing access to nutritious foods for low-income children, families, and seniors in the county.

The United Way of Bucks County noted that roughly 1 in 11 Bucks Countians and 16 percent of all kids are food insecure.
